The direct formation of propene from propane is a well-established commercial process,
which on the basis of energy consumption, is environmentally preferred to the current large …

Metal-free boron-and carbon-based catalysts have shown both great fundamental and
practical value in oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) of light alkanes. In particular, boron …

Oxidative dehydrogenation of propane (ODHP) is a key technology for producing propene
from shale gas, but conventional metal oxide catalysts are prone to overoxidation to form …

Encapsulation of metal nanocatalysts by support-derived materials is well known as a
classical strong metal–support interaction (SMSI) effect that occurs almost exclusively with …

Conspectus Heterogeneous catalysis is at the heart of the chemical industry. Being able to
tune and design efficient catalysts for processes of interest is of the utmost importance, and …

Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) as a type of two-dimensional (2D) materials has gained
significant attention in green energy applications recently. In the past, h-BN has mainly been …

Engineering the adsorption and dissociation of molecules on dual-active sites at interface is
an integral constituent for rational design of high-efficient catalysts. Herein, we describe a …

Shale gas is the main source and reservoir of natural gas, and contains a small fraction of
ethane and propane. Along with the increasing exploitation scale, shale gas has the …

Oxidative dehydrogenation of propane is a promising technology for the preparation of
propene. Boron-based nonmetal catalysts exhibit remarkable selectivity toward propene and …

Hexagonal boron nitride (h‐BN) has lately received great attention in the oxidative
dehydrogenation (ODH) reaction of propane to propylene for its extraordinary olefin …
